The Master of Science in Medical Physics (M.S.M.P.) program equips students for successful careers as medical physicists, aligning with guidelines set by the American Association of Physicists in Medicine. Dedicated full-time students can typically finish this program within eighteen months.
This graduate program offers both a Master of Science in Medical Physics (MS MP) and a Doctor of Philosophy option through the nuclear engineering PhD track. It emphasizes radiation applications in medicine, especially for diagnosing and treating illnesses. Alongside the conventional on-campus MS curriculum, a distance learning version of the MS MP program is available to support working professionals. Many practicing medical physicists from government agencies and private sectors engage in this video-based educational opportunity.
